For drivers that don't have the error handling callbacks we implement
recovery by removing the device and re-probing it. This causes the sysfs
directory for the PCI device to be removed which causes the following
spurious error to be printed when checking the PE state:
Breaking 0005:03:00.0...
./eeh-basic.sh: line 13: can't open /sys/bus/pci/devices/0005:03:00.0/eeh_pe_state: no such file
0005:03:00.0, waited 0/60
0005:03:00.0, waited 1/60
0005:03:00.0, waited 2/60
0005:03:00.0, waited 3/60

0005:03:00.0, waited 7/60
0005:03:00.0, Recovered after 8 seconds
We currently try to avoid this by checking if the PE state file exists
before reading from it. This is however inherently racy so re-work the
state checking so that we only read from the file once, and we squash any
errors that occur while reading.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
